    Summary

    People told Izuku time and time again he could never be a Hero without a Quirk. Izuku refused to believe them... right until All Might himself told him so. It almost made him give up.

    Almost. When his best friend finds himself in trouble, Izuku's determination to save him draws the notice of the Unconquered Sun, who Exalts him as a Twilight Caste Solar. Izuku is still Quirkless. The only difference is that he now has a power. Different, but still.

    "This is your power." Sol Invictus said. "Use it well." This is exactly what Izuku intends to do.

    Summary

    I set the fire, Mizu had confessed thickly into Taigen's ear, when their mouths were still filled with ash, eyes half-sealed with tears from acrid smoke.

    Did you have a choice? Taigen had asked as a response, hauling them forward another step across a bridge, toward another life.

    Mizu had fallen silent—so silent that Taigen lifted his chin in worry that he had drawn his final breath without Taigen's permission.

    No, the not-samurai had told him then. I did not have a choice.

    And Taigen believed it.

     

    Fool.

    Post season 1 canon divergence.

    Taigen crosses the bridge to pursue happiness with Mizu instead.
